Newcomers aim to help Heels forget

Posted Oct 15, 2010
The Tar Heels kick off the 2010-11 season with "Late Night with Roy" tonight at 8 p.m. in the Smith Center, and the players are ready to put the 2009-10 memories behind them. Junior Larry Drew II said the past season was a humbling experience, as the Tar Heels had more losses since the 2001-02 team went 8-20. "Everybody has the same mindset that we don't want to go through the same thing again," Drew said. (Durham Herald-Sun)
